They do for sure, and I don't want to take that from them. It's not my reaction. Mine is "fuck yeah!"

And I wish you the best of luck! It sucks out there.

Legend! No questions asked.

And they share a piece of that with me. And I'm happy for it.

It turns out I have this addiction to food clothing and shelter I can't kick.

It is! I'm that kind of nerd and love it.

This is more than what's asked for. But when my job is done just average much less poorly it regularly contributes to stripping the dignity away from those who have no voice or no say. It takes art, creativity, and compassion for people to put in the effort to do it right. And I love doing it right!

Hell yeah!! And thank you!

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

🤣

And love it!

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

Disagree, I love what I do!

Ouch, celebrating an unemployment birthday doesn't sound like any fun at all...

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

No no i want to enjoy all the time I have. Pretty hard to get more.

Did you say "yutes"? (thelemmy.club)

Not my best likeness but I love this movie. I need to watch it again soon. Do you have a favorite quote to share?

Guess Who! (thelemmy.club)

I love paintings that are super loose but you can easily tell who the subject is. This is my attempt at that. Can you tell who it is? Feedback on the style?

Step Dad (thelemmy.club)

A few years ago my Mom had to have cancer cut out of her. My step dad said he was fine to go alone but one one my brother's and I refused to allow that. While he tried to keep it buttoned up we could tell he was worried. The reference is after we were told she was okay, and he asked for an ice cream to celebrate the moment. I've never seen him happier and getting to see him express his love for my mom will be a moment I'll never forget.

Morning Fog (thelemmy.club)

Slightly different painting technique with a different brush set just to change things up. Again I added a person to ground us in the image. I'm liking this so much it may be my new thing.

Cliff Diver (thelemmy.club)
submitted 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) by BallShapedMan@lemmy.world to c/artshare@lemmy.world

The scenery is from a reference but there was no diver. I added her. Does she look like she belongs? Feedback?

Meet Wade (thelemmy.club)

My car has been out of commission since June last year. It's finally back up and running and I can't wait to put a ridiculous amount of miles on him!

Sunset at a Tree (thelemmy.club)

My mom took the source photo. This is one of her favorite trees to photograph, pretty sure I have a dozen photos of it at different times of day and year. I read that a person in a landscape grounds us in the scene. So I added one.
